The Piercing Truth

This is right from the dictionary and seems to describe Albuquerque, Berry and Schultz. Fascism (f ash ,izem) noun An authoritarian right wing system of government and/or social organization. (in general use) extreme right wing, authoritarian, chauvinistic and/or intolerant views or practices. Fascism tends to include a belief in the supremacy of one group over another, national, ethnic, especially social strata or monetarily; a contempt for democracy, an insistence on obedience to a powerful leader, and a strong demagogic approach. Compliments of one of our Eyes

And the Answer is; Get rid of Em’!

The Eye On Albuquerque ran a poll. The Eye Poll asked, “Darren White has claimed the City is $66 million in the red. Berry made a promise to eliminate the un-needed Public Safety Director’s position. Do you think Berry should eliminate the Public Safety Director position and all Public Information Officers?” Recently White has recanted and now claims that the red ink is $40 million dollars. Maybe it was just a little “White’ lie” or maybe White misspoke again.

Although, our Eye Poll is unscientific, the results clearly show by a 90% margin that Mayor Berry should eliminate the position of public safety director and all public information officers positions throughout the City. Below are the results:

333 (90%) Yes, I agree

27 (7%) No, I disagree

7 (1%) I have no opinion

A total of 369 people participated in our poll.

Do the citizens of Albuquerque even have a City Council? By the way this city is being run by the fascism style; it does look like we do. Our elected City Council has forgotten that they were elected to represent the citizen and the citizens’ best interest, not just sit back and collect a check.

Unscientific or not, this is the voting public speaking. It may behoove Mayor Berry to heed to this public opinion. What the Eye means by “heed” is eliminate the positions. Do not try and fool the public and transfer them to positions such as “Special Projects Coordinators.”

I WILL TELL YOU THIS, THE REPUBLICAN PARTY IS IN SPLINTERS. I TELL YOU THIS BECAUSE THERE'S A SHOCK WAVE THAT'S SENDING TREMORS ALL OVER. THERE'S A LOT OF TALK ON THE STREET IN ALL CIRCLES, THAT HEATHER WILSON'S CAMPAIGN IS IN JEOPARDY, IF SHE CONTINUES THIS PANDERING OF DARREN WHITE AND RJ BERRY. SORRY FOLKS IT'S TRUE.JOHN SANCHEZ ANNOUNCED HIS BID FOR SENATE AND SHE WILL HAVE A PRIMARY.SHE HAS A CHOICE; LOOSE DARREN WHITE OR LOOSE THE ELECTION. THIS IS NOT ROCKET SCIENCE, IT'S FACT.

So how much is " Baby Hughey" TJ gonna make now? Does he take a pay cut for Darren saving his sorry bacon, or do we just shift those funds to another debit line item. We're in debt in case nobody has noticed. Darren, TJ and the 59K secretary are not part of the solution, they are part of the problem.DOES ANYONE OUT THERE NOT GET THAT?How 'bout you RJ, do you not get that?

There is a petition located on the fans page to remove mayor berry. It is symbolic in the fact that the people are trying to see how many supporters are out there who want berry gone, before an actual petition is issued to distric court for approval. BERRY NEEDS TO GO! If he won't do his job, then WE the people who put him there will do it for him. Same goes for city council! Here is the link to the website: http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/impeachberry/

We're paying 'Sperm Whale' $6,000.00a month to do what? Whats the job description?Deal is that Darren has to split TJ with Sal. Not only will he still have to fetch breakfasts and lunches for the guys, in his city work car, he will be serving at the pleasure of his new master. And that folks is what we pay 80K a year for.

"A hope for fairness"??? She's at at will employee(aka: yes man). No matter how good one's intentions might be, if you aren't able to retire at a moments notice, how hard are you really going to fight against the powers that be? The good ole boy system is alive and functioning all too well! Problem is now all of the "good ole boys" are from from good. They all have dirt on eachother and they blackmail their way through the days.From a member of the public, all of this is very discouraging.

Yes Marty was something else, but he said what he was. There was no pretending. He didn't wear Christianity on his sleeve and pretend he was Mr. moral. He didn't pretend to be a Boy Scout . He didn't go campaigning with the montra that he was pure and would clean up the city.This is exactly what RJ Berry did. Practice what you preach Mr. Mayor

TJ; a thumb in the eye to every working stiff in the city , both public and private sector, because we all share in the burden through our taxes to provide for him.Can we make a deal with him to just go home and we'll pay him 30 grand a year to do that?

ETHICS= A discipline dealing with good and evil and with moral duty. INTEGRITY= Adherence to a code of values, sincerity,honesty,and candor. ( webster dictionary ) ETHICS, INTEGRITY, EQUAL HONOR. No matter what others may do, never forget what that badge on your chest stands for. You earned that badge and you continue to earn it every day of your life. However that badge does not belong to you, it belongs to the Citizens OF Albuquerque. Never forget that. Men and women of A.P.D. stay the course. I respect each and everyone of you that honor that badge.

I didn't support Marty, I voted for Berry. I am a life long Republican and it made me sick the way the 5th floor kissed up to him! Now I would have him back in a flash. I have called 311 on four different occasions to report 1) a traffic jam 2) water leak in the street 3) debri on the freeway 4) water break again in a different location. Every called ended with the operator telling me to hang up and call another city department!! I not sure why we pay for these people if they aren't doing anything for the public tax payers. When Marty was in office I used 311 several times and and immediately they took the information and let me know that the problem would be addressed, and in every instance it was.

Mayor Berry, I call on you to fix this problem!!! The next time I use 311 and have the same result, I will work against you when you run for for re-election. You work for me, I am tax payer and I have a lot of time on my hands for the next election cycle!!!!!

IS THE CITY COUNCIL ON VACATION ? DOES THE CITY COUNCIL NOT CARE ABOUT THIS TJ THING. I AM OUT OF WORK AND HAVE BEEN FOR SOME TIME. I CANT BELIEVE THE CITY FIRED TJ AND WITH IN MINUTES HE HAD ANOTHER JOB WITH THE CITY. I BET WE ALL WISH WE COULD HAVE A JOB LIKE THAT.

WHY DOES ERIN KINARD, DARIN'S ADMIN GAL HAVE HER OWN PERSONAL PARKING SPOT ON THE POLICE RAMP!!!! SHE IS NOT LAW ENFORCEMENT!!! THE LIEUTENANTS CAN'T EVEN PARK ON THE RAMP! IF SHE HAD TO PAY FOR PARKING LIKE THE REST OF US IT WOULD COST HER SEVERAL HUNDRED DOLLARS A YEAR.

WHAT GIVE, WHO DOES SHE THINK SHE IS?

EVEN MARTY CHAVEZ DID NOT HAVE ANY OF HIS PEOPLE PARKED ON THE POLICE RAMP...

DARIN, WHY DOES ERIN KINARD GET A SPOT ON THE POLICE RAMP AND DOES NOT HAVE TO PAY MONTHLY PARKING LIKE THE REST OF US?

I sure hope Ray is looking into the "real" phone calls that put one of our legislators in the hospital.http://www.krqe.com/dpp/news/politics/lawmakers-decry-negative-messagesIf he can spend tax dollars looking into known "fake" satirical twittering, he can sure as hell look into these "real" directed threats.

Yea, 311. WTF May-BERRY !!!This Albuquerque, not Mayberry RFDFor Christ sake, take charge. Be a mayor. That's what you were elected to do.Stop with Andy Taylor and Barney Fife running the city or Aunt Bea will come down and open up a can of 'Whoop -ass' on those two.

Question for Mr. Berry, since you're supposed to be in charge;Why do city workers hang out for over an hour each day in the parking lot @ Cicle K at Osuna and Jefferson each day? Most of the private sector are turning and burning by 7:30-8:00.

Average Joe Citizen here; I second the sentiments of commentor above. If you can't find the time to take charge and run this city better, I won't be voting to re-elect you. I feel like a damn fool for casting my vote for you now. Many Republicans I talk to feel the same way.Darren is no longer the Rs fair haired boy. He is tainted with corruption and your defending him makes you look suspect sir.Susana Martinez found out the hard way and Heather Wilson would be wise to take the same advice.

Darren plays favorites because he has to keep the people who know how dirty he really is happy. The more out rageous it gets, the more you will see the level of corruption, immorality and lack of ethics. Not only is he a racist that was run out of Texas for his racism on the PD there but he also dropped out of the military because he couldn't hang. Real work was much too hard for him...He rides the coat tails of anyone he sees succeed. He rides the fence until he knows which way the tides are turning then he springs into action. Soon all he will be fed is scraps, mark my words his day will come

W_H-A-T T-H-E F _ _ K IS DARREN DOING IN JAPAN? IS THIS OFFICIAL BUSINESS? please don't tell us he's on another rescue mission like Katrina. Please don't tell us he's going there as another one of his "look at me" I'm on camera tours again to save the earthquake people.His head has become too big for close up shots.Did he take his new Emergency Management CZAR, TJ with him?Maybe Darren can get him some of that "Jap in the sack" . No, I don't mean 'Jack in the Box'

here's the direct link for signatures to see how many people want to actually get mayor berry out of office. It would be a long an arduous task, so it will not be done unless there is support shown on this ipetition. A lot of red tape to get this done..including petitioning the court..so please show your support if you agree he needs to go. We the voters have the power, not him! Let's not forget that....here is the link - you can remain anonymous.
